Fuel line question Printed From: CorrectCraftFan.com Category: Repairs and Maintenance Forum Name: Boat Maintenance Forum Discription: Discuss maintenance of your Correct Craft URL: http://www.CorrectCraftFan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27259 Printed Date: November-18-2024 at 8:36pm Topic: Fuel line question Posted By: levinmark Subject: Fuel line question Date Posted: July-31-2012 at 11:59pm Good evening fellas, I posted this in the common questions, but figured I would post in maintenance since it really pertains more towards that, anyway, I decided to change the fuel line in our 96' Ski (351 Carbed) at the last minute tonight after work and went to Napa to purchas the line. It is a 3/8" (9.5mm) SAE 30R7, not for fuel injection, and is made by Gates. Question is that this line is not quite as large (o.d.) as the original line and I am concerned about the performance of it under conditions such as barefoot runs at pretty much WOT. Is there any chance that it could collapse or have other issues, or am I overthinking this and will be good to go. Thanks Mark ------------- levin Replies: Posted By: 74Wind Date Posted: August-01-2012 at 12:05am There's also a detailed post out there somewhere (Morfoot started it i think) about specific ethanol-resistant fuel lines which you might factor into your decision if you've not already. ------------- 1974 Southwind 18 1975 Century Mark II
